Beaming Donna Reeve smiles on her wedding day with daughter Amelia by her side.

Little Amelia, nicknamed Milly Moo, made the perfect flower girl.

But just eight months later the family was hit by tragedy when three-year old Amelia was diagnosed with leukaemia. She died in May 2010.

Six years on, Donna has dusted off her wedding dress for a special fundraising event in Amelia’s memory and she is inviting other women to do the same.

The 31-year-old, who set up the Milly Moo Right Now Foundation with husband Jon, is holding a wedding dress party at Lordswood Leisure Centre on Friday, March 25.

Every guest is encouraged to come dressed in some sort of wedding outfit – be it a bridal or bridesmaid dress, a suit or a posh frock with a hat.

There will be a dad dancing competition, wedding cake, and the chance to catch the bouquet.

Donna said: “A friend came up with the idea a few years ago. She said it would be funny to all get our wedding dresses out and wear them again.

“When we were planning our events for this year I got an old notebook out and found it written down in there – I thought it would be a fun way to raise money.”

Donna has dug out her wedding dress – which was covered in food and drink stains – and after a clean, it is ready to wear to the event.

She has got outfits for her three children, Jimmy, six, Poppy, four, and Dougie, eight months.

All the funds raised on the night will help Donna and Jon continue their work to help children with leukaemia and their families.

The couple, of Lodge Hill Lane, Chattenden, set up the Milly Moo Right Now Foundation following Amelia’s death and to date have raised more than £30,000.

The money has paid for a static caravan which they offer to families with children undergoing treatment so they can enjoy a free holiday and a much-needed break together.

The charity bought the caravan at Allhallows Leisure Park in May 2014 and have continued fundraising to pay for its upkeep and to organise special treats for the children who stay there.

Tickets cost £7 for adults and just £1 for children. Visit the foundation website for tickets.
